A love of painting is immediately revealed in the work of Liz Gribin. She is indeed a “painterly” painter. Within that, she creates a poetic atmosphere and a sensitive and refreshing rendering of the figure which is rare today. Elegant abstraction lends a sense of structure to the relationship of figure to background and gives solidity to these sometimes fragile “out of the air” images.
